I remember John Harford all the way back from when he was a guest on shows like The Smothers Brothers and Glen Cambell shows. He was "Americana" before it was a musical catagory.
A friend of mine took his eight year old daughter to see Hartford at the Missouri Botanical Garden auditorium, and grabbed a front row seat. During a sing-along, John was winking and crossing his eyes at her, and she was giggling...That was John Hartford. I saw him perform a couple of years before he passed, and it was a great show! Anyone ever get his autograph? (as always, in the old steamboat ledger "script" style)
I remember when I was really little my Dad took me to the Strawberry Festival in Yosemite. He was one of the headliners, and he signed one of my Dad's albums for me - I don't remember which one it was though. I remember him as a really funny guy.
